Thread Number Two
Also the insurance companies have to get the final cause of death before they pay off the policies to HKS.
If they pay well enough and he pull in enough bucks off of her death like ET 4 mil ect I bet he ships Danialynn Hope overnight Air freight to Larry B. Once it is proven he is the bio dat of coarse.
I am afraid that lil girl if she doesn't prove to be financially lucrative to the men/dads she will be off to private school to live.
Thanks! I did finally fall asleep, but this case swirled around in my brain. I'm hoping a friend or 2 of Danny's will be able to shed some light on the PI thing, and on what Danny was thinking and who else he may have spoken to.
The media sleuths seem blissfully unaware that Bridgett was even there! I'm searching for one of the 1st interviews with Bridgett. According to her, Anna had the high fever during the week BEFORE she went to Florida.
It is sooooo easy to shoot someone full of drugs through an IV.....I bet I'm right! It's my story and I'm sticking to it!
lol
Mr. Stern, were you or were you not AT ALL TIMES the overseer of Ms. Smiths administration of medications?
And, Mr. Stern, controlled substances such as methadone are NEVER on auto ship. By the way, the seal was broken.
I was just referring to custody issues in the courts, not to everyday, regular dads (and moms) who may have all kinds of problems, but aren't enmeshed in legal battles.
LOL Oh Lord don't slowly cross your legs!
I believe Methadone is illegal in the Bahamas so they likely confiscated it. Doesn't anyone think it unusual that they would search the refrigerator AND photograph it? It maybe that is how the cops justify the trip to the Horizons.
I think this applies to just about everybody in this case.
If you want to do role playing you got be faster with responses or I will fall asleep waiting on you.
Besides it is probably not a wise thing to do in the event he or one of his yahoo lawyers read this forum.
Well I hope they did - but the cops may have waited outside and they may have not known about the Methadone in the frig until Ford's picture hit the media by then it would have been dumped by Stern or one of his buddies.
I just perceived what Howard said on the clown video differently. The tone of his voice, to me, said he was fooling around and not serious. Maybe one day, if Anna had lived, she and he would have put that video on her website or sold it, but I didn't see that as his intention at that time.
"I have a baby to steal - (cough) I mean to take care of and money to count then move to my Swiss bank account."
LOL! Sorry. I got caught up in the Roddick match.
You can keep the cash, but PUT THE BABY DOWN AND WALK TO THE CAR.
He was kidding....he was KIDDING!
It's always funny to watch a 8 month pregnant woman strung out on drugs! Hilarious! Just a couple of jokesters, right?
You really don't believe that. Please tell me you really, really don't see the humor in that pathetic video.
Even though this is not new news - I thought it was worthy of a full group ping.
Commentary: UPDATE: Resolving the legal mess Anna Nicole left behind
Published on Thursday, March 15, 2007
By Anthony L. Hall
Today is being heralded as a day of reckoning in the late Anna Nicole Smith’s baby-Daddy drama. But, as was the case with everything in her life, today’s proceedings will be characterized far more by surreal fanfare than legal resolve.
In fact, the only moment of reckoning for parties to the Dannielynn-paternity and Horizons-ownership matters will probably come when they have to fight their way through rabid media scrums to enter and leave the Supreme Court. Because I suspect the legal jousting and posturing (amongst judges, lawyers and litigants) that have prolonged these matters thus far will conspire to extend them further still. And this, notwithstanding the fact that the paternity and ownership, respectively, could easily have been resolved months before Anna Nicole died if judges in The Bahamas had the temperament to exercise their authority more judiciously and decisively.
For example, when Larry Birkhead’s attorney’s filed papers in the Bahamian court months ago seeking enforcement of an order from a California court for Anna Nicole to provide DNA saliva samples from herself and Dannielynn to establish paternity, presiding Justice Stephen Isaacs should have ordered her to comply forthwith. And let me hasten to clarify that he should have done so not to genuflect to the California court; but rather to honour the letter and spirit of Bahamian law.
After all, Chapter 130 on the Status of Children provides that:
“Where circumstances exist that give rise to presumptions of paternity in respect of more than one father, no presumption shall be made as to paternity.”
This means that even though Howard K. Stern is presumed to be Dannielynn’s father - because he is allegedly designated as such on her birth certificate and cohabited with Anna Nicole for a statutorily-required period of time before her birth - that presumption was rendered moot by Birkhead’s application concerning this child’s paternity. And, even Stern’s lawyers would have to concede that Birkhead’s lawyers have presented enough circumstantial evidence in court to sustain a rebuttable case against Stern’s claim of paternity.
Therefore, Justice Isaacs had the authority (and duty) to order “blood tests” (or more advanced DNA tests) to determine paternity. And had he done so, he would have furthered the best interest of the child by resolving her paternity long before Anna Nicole died.
As it stands, Bahamian courts appear to be enabling, albeit unwittingly, Stern’s (and Anna Nicole’s posthumous) scheme to perpetrate a fraud not only on the court - by using it presumably to shield his mercenary interest in claiming paternity, but also against Birkhead (assuming he is the biological father) – by denying him the experience of sharing in the most precious moments of his daughter’s life. Therefore, I entreat Justice Isaacs to seize this opportunity to redeem Bahamian jurisprudence by ordering DNA tests today to finally establish paternity, without further ado.
(Then, of course, he can hear the more interesting matter concerning who gets custody of Dannielynn. And, notwithstanding cultural biases and legal precedents that favor mothers and grandmothers in custody cases, I submit that, under these circumstances, if Birkhead is determined to be the father, it would be in the best interest of the child to award him, not Anna Nicole’s estranged mother, Vergie Arthur, legal custody.)
Meanwhile, I am loath to bore you with too much commentary on the even more farcical Horizons dispute - between a squatting Stern and American real estate mogul G. Ben Thompson - over who is the legal and beneficial owner of this Bahamian property. Therefore I shall suffice to note that this case also should have been resolved months ago, and with even greater dispatch than the paternity case. In fact, but for the alleged machinations of a seemingly star-struck and love-lorn Bahamian minister of immigration (see Related Articles below), it would (and should) never have become a legal matter at all.
For the record, this silly dispute arises from the fact Anna Nicole took possession of Horizons to secure her permanent residency, but failed to honor contract terms to establish ownership. But her residency should never have been granted until she presented legal documents to prove that she had invested in real estate as required by law. (Then she would have been forced to resolve this matter to maintain her fugitive refuge from that California court order.)
Nevertheless, since Mr Thompson is the purported title holder (and no other ownership interest has been registered that supersedes his), the Judge should have granted his application to evict freeloading Stern and Anna Nicole long before she died. Therefore, it would amount to an egregious perversion of justice if she fails to settle this matter today – given that the parties are bound to have all documents necessary to support their respective claims available for consideration.
Accordingly, I hope the Honorable Justices of the Supreme Court of The Bahamas make us proud by doing the right (and just) thing today, despite the fanfare.

A huge YES to all you said. It's frustrating when the authorities don't seem to be getting the big picture.
I'm beyond surprise that Dr. Levy actually talked to TMZ or a source to admit this much and put himself in hot water, but glad he did.
Courts in the Bahamas cannot ORDER anybody to give DNA samples.
"Besides it is probably not a wise thing to do in the event he or one of his yahoo lawyers read this forum."
You're probably right.
That was in the transcript I commented about earlier this evening - here's what you're looking for:
~~~~
VAN SUSTEREN: That's the refrigerator? That's the picture you took.
F. SHELLY: Yes, ma'am.
VAN SUSTEREN: And that was taken on Friday, the day after she died?
F. SHELLY: Yes, ma'am.
VAN SUSTEREN: And had Howard been in the house at that point?
F. SHELLY: No, ma'am. But the reason that picture was answer, this picture was not taken to shown anything in the refrigerator other than the fact we knew Daniel had died from what they called just a concoction of medication. If anyone would have said, or Anna's cause of death would have been by methadone or anything like that, she had been gone since Monday. Methadone was in the refrigerator. Anna was on methadone to help her, and we knew that because of course I transported her from Los Angeles to Myrtle Beach in May, and they give you strict instructions in the bag of all of her medications.
I wanted to show not that there was methadone there and looking what she's taking - if she died of an overdose of methadone, she - her methadone was at home.
VAN SUSTEREN: Why'd she leave it behind? Unless she took other stuff with her, but they claim that they found they found no at least illegal drugs in the room.
F. SHELLY: Anna has never, in as long as we have never her, ever done illegal drugs. That was done just to show that her methadone was at the house. Now, the name on that methadone was "Michelle Chase."
VAN SUSTEREN: Who is Michelle Chase?
F. SHELLY: That is a name that Anna used for her prescriptions, because Anna told us when she was in town there was a place called Key Pharmacy that she got her prescriptions filled.
VAN SUSTEREN: In California?
F. SHELLY: In California.
And the doctor who prescribed those pills to her, who she told us who the doctor was. But we wanted to make sure that if something happened to Anna that was methadone related, her methadone was there.
